Bruins Remain Boston's Most Irrelevant Team
APRIL 14th, 2010- The playoffs have yet to start, and nobody in Boston really cares about their hockey team. Sad, but true.
APRIL 26th, 2010- The Bruins eliminate the Sabers from the playoffs in the first round, and people begin to believe that Boston is just naturally good at every sport. People jump on the Bruin's bandwagon, and Bruin's T-shirt sales skyrocket. I can admit that I was one of those fair-weather fans. Let's Go Bruins! HOCKEY RULES!
MAY 5th 2010- The Bruins take up a 3-0 lead against the Flyers, and suddenly people don't even think about the Patriots. Bruins are Boston's team, and the city collectively busts a nut to Tukka Rask. Hockey is relevant in Boston again.
MAY 12th 2010- Only a week later, the Flyers make it an even series, and everyone dislikes the Bruins again. I wouldn't say hate, because that isn't true. But everyone is witnessing a monumental collapse before they're eyes. The fate of the Bruins in the city of Boston stands alone on Game 7...
And that took us to tonight, Game 7. I ALMOST posted a blog about how the Bruins went from so loved to so hated yesterday, but I figured if they won Game 7, they would be back in the hearts of all the bandwagon fans. With the help from Milan Lucic's 2 Goals, the Bruins quickly took a 3-0 lead in the game. However the similarity between this game and the series was shown when the Flyers began to make ANOTHER monumental comeback, before winning in the 3rd period, 4-3.
Now the Bruin's are irrelevant again. Some of you may remember a blog we posted about the biggest chokes in sports history, and as embarrassing as it is, I have to put this collapse up there with those fuckin' Yankees. When they took the 3-0 lead on the Flyers, I actually considered watching regular season hockey games next year, just so I could see how my Bruins we're doing. The city loved the Bruins, and they watched the playoffs religiously. Now after the collapse, let's be honest, noone cares anymore. Next year's regular season will be the same as this season was, with only diehard hockey fans watching the games, and everyone else wondering why there is ice on the Celtic's court. Sorry Bruins, you had your opportunity to be up there with the Celtics and the Sox and the Patriots, but you blew it. You are once again the most irrelevant major sports team in the biggest sports capital of the World. Congratulations. Go Canadians.

Ugliest Players In Sport
A Nightmare at the Movie Theaters
The movie opens up with a fantastic scene, which I thought set the tone perfectly. A random character nobody cares about dies (like all scary movies). You only got quick glimpses of Freddy, which left the character scary and a mystery.
However, after that scene, I wasn't too impressed. The story took a WHILE to develop, and at least 45 mins had gone by before you knew what the fuck was happening. Don't get me wrong, because the deaths we're great, and as gruesome as they come, but so were the deaths in "My Bloody Valentine".
Now here is what I think might have ruined the movie for me...Freddy. The Freddy we all know in the original and in "Freddy vs. Jason" is a scary ass mother fucker. He actually freaks you out, and makes you not want to sleep. Now the Freddy that they created in the remake was no more than Joel Sonneburg with claws. He honestly didn't freak me out as much as I wish he did. He had no nose, and literally just looked like some burnt dude. When I went to see "The Dark Knight", I loved it because I was literally SCARED of the Joker while watching it. Like he freaked me the fuck out. I'm not sure if they we're trying to make Freddy more human, or whatever, but it just didn't do it for me.
The ending, however, was good. I liked it personally and I thought it was a good finish right before the credits. So if I was asked if someone should see it or not, I would tell them to go, but don't get your hopes up. So here are my ratings....
Opening Scene: 5 Stars
Villian: 2 Stars THE NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET: 3 1/2 Stars
Plot: 3 Stars
Ending: 4 Stars.

Beirut Betty
Betty White has game. She recently took on late night talk show host Jimmy Fallon in a friendly game of beirut (NOT BEER PONG, which has paddles). Not only was she able to keep up, but she flashes her talent here and there. As a college student, the importance of beirut skills is indescribable. It is a necessity in college and at parties. She may be old, but Betty knows how to get down, and can be my partner anyday (strictly beirut partner... she's like 90).
Superman
Steve Nash is the greatest Canadian to ever live (kind of an oximoron, but nonetheless, he's the shit). He takes a hell of a beating every game and has more guts than any other player in the NBA. He keeps pushing and leads his team to victory consistently. Game 4's victory over the Spurs was no exception. Nash was elbowed by Spurs star Tim Duncan above the right eye. He began to bleed profusely, but after receiving stitches, and nearly sealing his eye shut, Nash returned to the court and led his Phoenix Suns to victory, clinching the series and propelling his team to the Western Conference Finals. Steve Nash's performance defines bad ass. And did you see him cry or complain? No. It's not that he wasn't hurt and affected, his desire to win pushed him to victory. Nash would show his feminine side, if he had one.
Steve Nash, the blackest white guy in the NBA, proving Canadians have more to offer than hockey and bacon.

On the iPad:
Ah shit....
If you're wondering what the big deal is and where these shortcomings are within the iPad, allow me to enlighten you with five of the suckiest things about it. First we have its necessity of adapters. Want to plug in a flash drive or digital camera? Go buy an adapter! Next is the touch keyboard. This one is pretty self-explanatory as to why it sucks. Third we have the lack of Flash. I really hope you don't care about streaming videos, cause we know most people rarely do that! Fourth we have the inability to multitask. Want to listen to Pandora while writing a document? How about AIM chatting while emailing someone? Want to watch porn while running your Twitter app to let the world know you're watching porn? Too fucking bad you cant do any of that. Lastly is the name iPad itself. Let's all get ready for the Maxi pad jokes now, and lots of them!
Do yourself a favor and just buy a laptop

UFC 113 Live Updates
KIMBO SLICE v. MATT MITRIONE
Round One
Kimbo get's the initial takedown, but Mitrione immedietly sinks in a triangle. Kimbo pops out of it and goes into side control. After doing little damage, Mitrione pops it back up to the feet, only to be taken down again and sink in another triangle attempt. He let's go of it and gets back to the feet. Kimbo is gassed. A leg kick brings Kimbo down. Mitrione goes for an anaconda choke and loses it. Bell. Round one to Mitrione.
Round Two
Mitrione opens up with punches and leg kicks. Lands a big leg kick. Kimbos limping and has no answers for the leg kicks. Kimbo goes for a takedown, but has no energy and no left leg. Mitrione goes for knee's to the body up against the fence and takes Kimbo down. Mitrione get's the mount and ground and pounds. Not looking good for Slice. Ref stops it with 30 seconds left. Mitrione gets the W. Extremely One Sided fight.
Matt Mitrione def. Kimbo Slice by TKO 2:30 into Round Two.
JOSH KOSCHEK v. PAUL DALEY
Round One
Fighters don't touch gloves. Koschek goes for a big takedown and gets Daley on his back. Koschek pounds his body. Koschek gets his back and looks for a rear-naked choke. Sinks it in. Daley escapes to his feet, but hammers him with an illegal knee while Koschek was still down (a theme in Koschek fights apparently). Koschek doesn't get up, and is grimicing. Replay shows the knee may not even have hit him. Fight continues. Koschek goes for a takedown, but the bell rings. Round goes to Koschek.
Round Two
Koschek goes for another takedown and gets it. Works on top, and is currently having his way with Daley on the ground. Koschek goes for the full mount, but Daley recovers. Not alot of action. Koschek takes his back, but is in bad position to go for a choke. Koschek lands a few shots. Round Ends. Koschek up 2 rounds to 0.
Round Three of Three
If Daley wants a shot at the title, he needs to stay on his feet and knock Koschek out. Daley's hesitant to attack. Koschek get's ANOTHER takedown. This is becoming predictable. Koschek get's the full mount with 2 full minutes to work with. Not an exciting fight by any means, but Koschek is doing what he needs to do to win, and that's smother Daley on the ground. Round over. Round three to Koschek.
Josh Koschek def. Paul Daley by unanimous decision. 30-27
****Paul Daley punches Josh Koschek 4 seconds after the bell. Could be kicked out of UFC.
LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP.

Round One
Rua starts the action with two kicks. Shogun goes for a takedown, but Machida counters and gets his own takedown. Back to the feet and Shogun get's him against the fence. Down to the ground, and back up again. Shogun lands a few shots. He looks good. Shogun lands a right that drops Machida! Jumps on top and finishes him off! MACHIDA IS OUT! KO victory to give Shogun the light heavyweight championship.
Mauricio Shogun Rua def. Lyoto Machida by Knockout in Round One to become the new UFC Light Heavyweight Champion.

Electrolightz present ElectroNightz
Hey guys. For those of you who went to the Zoo's Spring Concert you know who these guys are. Listening to them Live, I thought that they were pretty good, but nothing to call
home about. Then I heard this mixtape. Download it, seriously. They blend techno and rap, with a Travis McCoy (Gym Class) flow, extremely well, and if you listen to the whole mixtape, you can never tell when they switch songs because one song flows into another so perfectly. I can honestly now call myself an Electrolightz fan. Check this shit outtt. I wouldn't steer you in the wrong direction.

I am so happy the C's traded Delonte..
I mean let's be serious for one second.. I clicked on this video on youtube because I wanted to see a sick freestyle. Delonte West is (kind of) black, and has neck tattoo's like nobody's business. I was waiting for something good to happen, and then he started singing. This video is the reason that the Celtics will beat the Cav's in the Eastern Conference Semi's. Now, I honestly don't expect anyone to watch this entire video, because I got like 3 minutes in before my Gaydar went off and I had to shut it off. But this is something I felt like I had to get out there. Let the racist KFC jokes begin..
Silly Philly
This Philly fanatic is such a big fan, he wanted to be a part of the Phillies/ Cardinals game Monday night. He ran out on to the field during the eighth inning and took a light jog around the outfield before epically being taken down by a TASER. Oh yeah, this dude was not fucking around one bit, anyone who messes with him is getting tasered.

Man-Tips from Forrest Griffin..
For those of you who don't know who Forrest Griffin is, he might be the most manly badass I have ever had the privilege to read about. Forrest is a UFC fighter, who won the first season of the Ultimate Fighter. He's a former light-heavyweight champion, and he recently wrote a book called "Got Fight?" which i picked up and read this past summer. He talks about how to be a "man" and tells stories that I thought I would share with you..
- INTIMIDATION- He talks about how one time, his roommate was fucking with him in college. He could of kicked the shit out of the guy, but he decided to send a message instead of beating up the dude. So he takes a lighter, and looks at the kid. And he says simply "My records 16 seconds, want to see me break it?" and starts burning his arm. He held it there so long (3/4 seconds) that his roommate had to knock the lighter out of his hand. Forrest walked away, with a bubbly, burned arm, and acted like nothing happened. And that kid never fucked with him again..
- PICKING UP CHICKS- Now some of these are something I would never have the guts to do, but apparently I'm not a "real man". Forrest went up to a girl in a bar one time. They got to talking when he said "I'm sorry I can't do this, I have extremely low self esteem and I have a really small dick." The girl would try to walk away and get away from him, when he says to her "Do you think you could take a look and tell me what you think?" which is when he whips out his dick, and it automatically looks huge cuz she was expecting something so small. And she's immediately interested. It's called reverse psychology people.
- PAIN/QUITTING- When you're a fighter, obviously dealing with pain and giving up is a big part of the job. Forrest is fucking insane, and in his book he makes sure you know that. To train himself to feel no pain, he goes to the gym and gets on the treadmill. He puts the treadmill up to 15.0 (thats fucking fast for those of you who dont go to the gym), and runs. He'll sprint like that until his legs burn like nobodys business. It's basic human instinct to quit, but he doesn't. And after doing this day after day, you start to not feel pain as much, and not quit so easily in the ring.
WTF?!... that's good.
Okay, I know it's fucked but this girl is out of her mind. Watch some of her other videos if you want more. But first, focus in at the Dad at 0:45 seconds... Sounds like the ill rapist, I think there's more than just drinkable shampoo in that bottle...
"That's good."

Put It On Freestyle
No one remembers doing it, but it's fire... so fucked up!
